Engine sprocket removal Z1000R2

#1 PostAuthor: Stugill » Wed Dec 28, 2016 7:06 pm

I was keen today ( and well wrapped up ) and started to remove the bits and pieces from the bottom half of the engine to get it on the stand for a spruce up.

All went well until it came to taking off the sprocket, the manual states to use a particular tool that fits into two holes in the sprocket. The sprocket does not have the holes, even if I had the tool!

Any advice on getting the bugger off? or other suggestions?

Cheers

Stu

You could also stick the bike in gear and place a 2 by four through the rear wheel and against the swingarm to lock it up.
Do not attempt with a spoked wheel!

Or get (or make) one of these. Also great for holding clutch hubs.
